"THE LIONS DEN!"

Daniel in the Lions den
ANGELS all around,
Locking up the Lions mouths
so they wouldn't ~ Daniel ~ down!
God had a PLAN for him
& it wasn't to be ~ eaten,
Daniel was to serve God well
& Satan ~ he'd be defeatin'!
So the next time you're in trouble
staring in the face of fear,
Remember to PRAY like Daniel
TRUSTING GOD 'completely' ~ my dear!

"CONFESS & FORSAKE!" *
© 1999 Patricia L. Carpenter
{Poem Book # 5}
To 'confess' yet not forsake
our sins ~ is but a joke,
For our confession isn't 'real'
& ~ at God ~ we only poke!
Poke fun at His 'Mercy'
& His 'dying' Grace,
As we really aren't repentant
& can't look into His Face.
To 'practice' sin is death
& we surely will not win,
As we must submit to God
to win out over sin!
'Admitting' we are wrong
is just the first step we must take,
As it leads to God to help us
all those SINS to just 'forsake'.
* Prov.28:13. 8/25/98
